The coordinator of the Veteran Development Center of LTSNU, Yaroslava Yurkiv, and the executive secretary of the admissions committee, Viktoria Volodavchyk, visited the rehabilitation department of the Lubny Intensive Care Hospital. 

During the visit, the specialists walked around the department, talked with military personnel undergoing rehabilitation, got acquainted with the treatment conditions, and established contact with the medical staff and the institution’s management. During the meeting, information materials about Luhansk Taras Shevchenko National University were distributed and answers were provided to current questions regarding admission, forms of study, and opportunities for students.

Viktoriia Volodavchyk emphasized the importance of continuous education and advanced training for specialists in various fields. She familiarized those present with the conditions for admission to master’s and postgraduate studies, retraining programs, vouchers for training, as well as the advantages of obtaining education at LTSNU – one of the oldest and at the same time innovative higher education institutions in Ukraine.

Yaroslava Yurkiv, in turn, emphasized that the LTSNU Veteran Development Center is a space of support, orientation, and growth for military personnel, veterans, and their family members. The Center is responsible for educational and professional adaptation, training, retraining, advanced training and reintegration of defenders into society. She invited those present to visit the Veteran Development Center and use its services.

Let us recall that the basis for the creation of the Center was the university’s unique 10-year experience in working with military personnel, combatants, war veterans, members of their families and families of fallen soldiers. Such a scale and systematic interaction have no analogues among civilian higher education institutions of Ukraine.

In her closing remarks, Yaroslava Yurkiv emphasized: “Education for military personnel and veterans is a path to new opportunities, adaptation and development. It is a chance to acquire a new profession, realize one’s potential in peaceful life, strengthen one’s knowledge and return to active participation in society. Education opens the door to a confident future, helps to find one’s own place after service, restore inner balance and grow professionally and personally.”
